It takes the drudgery out of repetitive data manipulation and puts you in control
of the text you are manipulating.

The upgrade gives you filters ('where' clauses) so you
can be more selective about your text manipulation. It also allows you to fully
automate NimbleText from the command-line,
and provides many other benefits that turn it into
a more versatile part of your data-crunching toolkit.

Loved by Scott Hanselman

Scott Hanselman is a software developer
who knows a thing or two about great tools. He's downloaded and used pretty much
every piece of software on the internet and Scott's giant list of tools (at
http://hanselman.com/tools) is widely read and used by developers everywhere.
What does he think of NimbleText? Scott rates NimbleText as one of his "BIG
TEN LIFE AND WORK-CHANGING UTILITIES"

BIG TEN LIFE AND WORK-CHANGING UTILITIES:

NimbleText – Regular Expressions are hard and I'm
not very smart. NimbleText lets me do crazy stuff with large amounts of text without
it hurting so much.
—Scott Hanselman

Stop! Wait! What's all this about Regular Expressions?

Did he mention regular expressions? Regular Expressions are hard. NimbleText is
secretly powered by regular expressions, but YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW THAT. You don't
have to know a single thing about regular expressions to be an expert at using NimbleText.

Let me give you a metaphor. You can sit on a fine timber chair without being an
expert carpenter. Similarly you can get the benefits and power of regular expressions
without actually writing them yourself. This is called the Zen of NimbleText.

Free your mind and your text will follow.

Years of Work

Almost a decade of work has gone into NimbleText. It was initially a very simple
tool called 'The Programmers Mate'. In the 10 years since then it has been completely
rewritten many times and continually refined and sharpened. It is a labour of love
between man and keyboard.

Every time I catch myself performing a repetitive task I stop and assess the situation.
This is my curse and this is also my gift to you. NimbleText is
the product of that continual analysis of the repetitive nature of the work we're
all performing.

On top of that I have many years of Engineering experience, bringing rock-solid
products to market, and carefully fine-tuning every aspect of the product to make
it dependable, comfortable and well-balanced. NimbleText, in the hands of a user,
should have the same easy nature as any hand-crafted tool from a master craftsman.

I just created
250 SQL insert statements
from an excel file in
a few seconds
with NimbleText. This is a great tool!

Software Developers, You'll Love NimbleText!

NimbleText generates Javascript, it generates C#, it generates Java, it generates
Ruby. You know the secret already: code is just text, and NimbleText manipulates
text with less effort and greater versatility than any tool around.

Want to transform a list of column names into a class definition? NimbleText can
do that.

Want to reverse a bunch of assignments? No sweat.

Want to format a bunch of numbers into an array, or bind members of an array to
a series of controls: those little bits of repetitive code that crop up all the
time are best done with NimbleText.

Stop doing the repetitive monkey work!

You don't get paid the big dollars because you manipulate text,
you get the big money because you think clearly, solve real problems and add real
value.

So hand the text manipulation and the monkey work to NimbleText. It will free up
your wonderful brain to do the unique and special things you do so well!

Data Analysts, NimbleText is the solution!

You're the clever-clogs who turns the company's messed up data into something meaninful
that gets the big bosses excited.

And you know the data doesn't turn up all neat and ready for crunching. It has to
be formatted, and filtered and sorted and beaten into
shape before you can even begin to make head or tail of it. That's where our Nimble
friend comes in!

Need to grab the fifth column, but only in rows where the third column is empty?
Messy little jobs like that happen all the time. Put NimbleText to work, and the
messy data you're receiving will be ship shape in a flash!

Spreadsheets Getting You Down?

The enterprise sure does love its spreadsheets! And you're the girl or guy they
call when the problem is too tricky for their own spreadsheet skills.

Whether it's mistreating text as numbers, or insisting that a number is a date,
spreadsheets are often the wrong tool for the job. NimbleText has
versatile date formatting features, and other
goodies to get the job done.

This Is Serious TADMAP!

When you want to perform some serious TADMAP, you need a tool like NimbleText
that excels at TADMAP
